- Motion reference: S5M-22507
That the Parliament acknowledges the 10th anniversary of the Armed Services Advice Project; understands that the project offers specialist advice and support to those serving in the armed forces, or who are veterans, and their families; acknowledges that it is run by Citizens Advice Scotland and funded by a coalition of military charities, led by Poppyscotland; recognises that, since it was founded in 2010, it has helped 15,950 people, unlocking £17.6 million for those it has helped by accessing, for example, welfare benefits, unpaid wages, compensation and other funding sources, and wishes the project continued success for the future.
